Dave Hansing presented following comparisons of development plans with criteria set forth by City Council: Lakeshore setbacks, number of units, hardcover, setbacks fromCo. Rd. 19 and Lakeshore Ave. and Land use (Multi -family) meet criteria. Size of units and fence placement do not comply. He stated that approval from Hennepin County and the Park Reserve District will be needed,wu°L for grading, utility easements and storm sewer and that a sea wall will need to be con- structed. Letter from Pioneer Creek Watershed District indicates that erosion protection should be provided during construction and an earthen berm needs to be constructed along the lake during construction of buildings. Fran Hagen of Westwood Planners stated that restrictive covenants can handle the 17,000 sq.ft. unit size requirements and that they caon provide for the concerns of the Watershed District. Robert Franklin stated that due to the fact that there is less area available, than originally thought, the hardcover and unit size should be reduced. Mr. Hagen stated that by using the high water level as set by the DNR some land area has been gained, perhaps 4 - 6 ft. along the lake. Robert Ludwig asked if the additional units that are planned could be accomodated by the sewer and water system. Thomas Anderson stated that more use of the systems is needed to make the system work more efficiently and that seven assessment units were charged against the property when assessed. Mr. Ludwig stated that there have been problems with the water and sewer systems since they were put into operation either because of poor management or over -use. Thomas Crosby stated that not enough use of the systems has caused problems in the area. Robert Franklin stated that sufficient parking and drive area is not provided. Mr. itagen stated that 3 - 4 spaces per unit are provided. Robert Linkenheil stated that the property is very fragile and the plan has to much hardcover. Consideration should be given to changing guidelines because land area has been reduced. Reuben Fries stated that there are problems with surveying lots in the area and perhaps there is not as much land area ash shown on the map. Dick Wulff stated that density is to great and property should comply with density of lots to the west. Allowing more than six units would be irresponsible. Robert Franklin asked hbr Council intended to steal with the plan in view of the fact that plan does not meet guidelines. Thomas Crosby explained that plans are very near Council criteria if the ,square footage had remained as originally calculated. Mr. Hagen stated that they had followed the March 27th letter sent to them by the cities attorney. Howard Weller asked what type of business would be allowed on the property under present commercial zoning. Thomas Crosby stated that many types of businesses are allowed undercommercialzoning, and that residential is the best use of the property with present utility system being able to serve the proposed 10 units. The most important items that need to be addressed are density and environment protection. Motion by Reiser, seconded by Crosby to close the Public Hearing. Motion declared carried Public Hearing closed at 9:45 P.M. William Reiser stated that project should be denied because guidelines have not been met. Thomas Crosby asked attorney to elaborate on procedures if project were denied. Richard Schieffer stated that a new applicationwould be dealt with under new ordinances and townhouse criteria would allow 14 units. Thomas Crosby suggested that engineers and attorney meet to determine if developer can meet hardcover requirement based on acreage decrease, consideration should be given to Robert Franklin's letter and Richard Schieffer's March 27th letter.
